d-Amphetamine and Feeding States Cohesively Affect Locomotion and Motor Neuron Response in Zebrafish Larvae.
Article in Brain and behavior, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeAmphetamine (AMPH) increases locomotor activities in animals, and the locomotor response to AMPH is further modulated by caloric deficits such as food deprivation and restriction. The increment in locomotor activity regulated by AMPH-caloric deficit concomitance can be further modulated by varying feeding schedules (e.g., acute and chronic food deprivation and acute feeding after chronic food deprivation). However, the effects of different feeding schedules on AMPH-induced locomotor activity are yet to be explicated. Here, we have explored the stimulatory responses of acutely administered D-amphetamine in locomotion under systematically varying feeding states (fed/sated and food deprivation) and schedules (chronic and acute) in zebrafish larvae.
methodWe exposed wild-type and transgenic [Tg(mnx1:GCaMP5)] zebrafish larvae to 0.7 µM concentration of AMPH and measured swimming activity and spinal motor neuron activity in vivo in real time. The analysis involved time-elapsed and cumulative manner pre- and post-AMPH treatment in four different caloric states including acute and chronic schedules of feeding and hunger. Both locomotor and motor neuron activities were compared in all four states in both fish lines.
findingsOur results show that locomotion and motor neuron activity increased in both chronic and acute food deprivation post-AMPH treatment cumulatively. A steady increase in locomotion was observed in acute food deprivation compared to an immediate abrupt increase in chronic food-deprivation state. The ad libitum-fed larvae exhibited a moderate increase both in locomotion and motor neuron activity. Conversely to all other caloric states, food-sated (acute feeding after chronic food deprivation) larvae moved moderately less and exhibited a mild decrease in motor neuron activity after AMPH treatment.
conclusionThese results reveal the importance of cohesive effects of feeding schedule and AMPH treatment by revealing the changes in stimulatory characteristics of AMPH on locomotion and motor neuron activity in acute and chronic feeding states.
